BALLER MOVE: Start in 10+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: Low-End WR2/High-End WR3
ANALYSIS: Khalil Shakir is a solid start this week, especially in leagues with 10 or more teams. In Week 9, Shakir hauled in 6-of-7 targets for 50 yards in the Buffalo Bills' 30-27 victory over the Miami Dolphins, leading all Bills receivers in receptions.
The 24-year-old's volume of targets and consistent role as a trustworthy option for quarterback Josh Allen make him a strong choice for fantasy managers. This week, the Bills take on the Indianapolis Colts. The Colts have allowed nine touchdowns to the wide receiver position this season.

While Shakir has only found the end zone twice this season, he could increase that total, particularly with the potential absences of other key players. Amari Cooper missed Week 9 with a wrist injury and remains day-to-day. Additionally, Keon Coleman suffered a wrist ailment during that game.
If either Cooper or Coleman miss time, Shakir's target share could increase, boosting his fantasy outlook. Managers looking for a dependable option should feel optimistic about plugging the third-year player into their lineups. Watch as the injury news comes in on Coleman and Cooper to know if Shakir will see more work.
